Newspaper reporter Harry Barber has just come home to Palmetto - a sleepy seaside Florida village that has long attracted trouble. Harry is fresh out of prison-his reward for trying to do the right thing in a chronically corrupt town. He tried to make a difference, tried to expose the layers of extortion at the town's center, but he was treated to an 8X10 cell.

Movie Review
Palmetto is not the most original film out there, nor is it the greatest to watch, but it isn't that big of a let down, either. Going into the movie, I didn't know what the hell it was about. All I knew was that Woody Harrelson, Elisabeth Shue, and Gina Gershon were in it. Well, I was write on that account, but there was more to Palmetto than just a strange sex thriller, which the previews implied (it was a while ago, so maybe I'm mistaken). Full movie review »
